Description

Sonja reported that the system hangs when creating a site. I did some digging and discovered that it only happens when setting a privacy level lower than 0. It turns out that anything lower than 0 triggers an .htaccess write from our CAC_File_Protection system, and .htaccess writes are hanging because insert_with_markers() calls fclose(), and fclose() is somehow broken.

My guess is that this is due to this weekend's maintenance, which involved a filesystem change. I'm unsure how to patch the Commons without creating privacy issues, so I'm going to contact Lihua to see if he can help.
